As the percent of sakes method is used for estimating the bad debt expense. Therefore, it is computed as:

Bad debt expense = Net Credit Sales × Estimate Percent

Net credit sales amounts to $178,000

Estimate percent is 6%

So, putting the values above:

Bad debt expense = $178,000 × 6%

Bad debt expense = $10,680

Therefore, the bad debt expense amounts to $10,680

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

1. $432,000

2. Finished goods inventory $776,000

Work in process $230,000

Explanation:

1. Preparation of an annual income statement for the Kitchen Ninja knife series

First step is to determine The Total Manufacturing cost per unit

DIRECT MATERIAL

Hardened steel blank $ 4.00

Wood for handle $ 1.50

Packaging $ 0.50

Total direct material $ 6.00

(4.00+1.50+0.50)

Direct labor $ 0.50

Factory overhead (800/250)$3.20

Total manufacturing cost per knife $ 9.70

(6.00+0.50+3.20)

Now let prepare the Income statement

INCOME STATEMENT

Sales $17,920,000

(1120,000 * 16)

Cost of good sold $10,864,000

(1120,000 * 9.7)

Gross profit $7,056,000

($17,920,000-$10,864,000)

Selling expense:

Infomercial campaign $2,000,000

($600,000 +$1400,000 )

Promotional material $3,600,000

(60,000 * $60)

Shipping cost $224,000

(1120,000 * 0.2)

Total selling expense $5,824,000

($2,000,000+$3,600,000+$224,000)

Administrative expense:

Legal expense $800,000

Total selling and administrative expense

$6,624,000

($5,824,000+$800,000)

Income from operation $432,000

($7,056,000-$6,624,000)

Therefore the annual income statement for the Kitchen Ninja knife series will be $432,000

2. Calculation to Determine the balances in the work in process and finished goods inventories for the Kitchen Ninja knife series on December 31, 2016

Calculation for Finished goods inventory

Finished goods inventory=($1,200,000 – $1,120,000) * 9.7

Finished goods inventory=$80,000*9.7

Finished goods inventory= $ 776,000

Calculation for Work in process

Work in process= 25,000 * (6 + 3.20)

Work in process=25,000*9.20

Work in process= $230,000

Therefore the balances in the work in process will be $776,000 and finished goods inventories will be $230,000 for the Kitchen Ninja knife series on December 31, 2016

A company sells goods for $150,000 that cost $54,000 to manufacture. Which statement is true? a. The company will recognize sale
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

Finished goods are those goods which have been finished or completed through the process of the manufacturing or purchased or bought in the completed form, but not sold yet to the customers.

The finished goods cost or expense is considered to be a asset which is short term in nature, which is expected to be sold in less than a year or period.

So, when the company sold the goods that worth $54,000 to the manufacture for $150,000, this will lead to decrease in the finished goods of the company which worth $54,000.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The answer is c.the acquisition of Taylor should be primarily for defensive rather than strategic reasons.

Compute the payback period for each of these two separate investments: A new operating system for an existing machine is expecte
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

The payback period for each of these two separate investments is 2.21 years and 3.62 years respectively.

Explanation:

Pay back period: The pay back period denotes that period in which the borrower is pay back the loan amount.

It shows a relationship between initial investment and annual cash inflows.

Mathematically,

Payback period = Initial Investment ÷ Annual cash inflows

where,

initial investment is the purchase amount

and, annual cash flows = incremental income + depreciation

1. For one investment, the depreciation amount is

= (Purchase amount - salvage value) ÷ useful life

= ($520,000 - $10,000) ÷ 6

= $85,000

So annual cash flows = $150,000 + $85,000

                                    = $235,000

Hence, the payback period = $520,000 ÷  $235,000

                                              = 2.21 years

2. For second investment, the depreciation amount is

= (Purchase amount - salvage value) ÷ useful life

= ($380,000 - $20,000) ÷ 8

= $45,000

So annual cash flows = $60,000 + $45,000

                                    = $105,000

Hence, the payback period = $380,000 ÷  $105,000

                                              = 3.62 years

Thus, the payback period for each of these two separate investments is 2.21 years and 3.62 years respectively.
